Chapter 476 - On the Rooftop

The sun was already sinking, the orange-red colors slowly fading into purple and indigo shades, with few stars dotting the sky.

Xiong Zhi had not told him yet, still rousing her courage.

She just felt that telling Linfeng the past life would take a long time. It was a long story after all and she did not know where to begin with.

Linfeng brought Xiong Zhi to his special place in the old mansion.

However, Xiong Zhi no longer walked and was carried up instead.

Earlier, when she looked up and told him that she had something to say, Linfeng noticed that her body trembled.

He immediately insisted on carrying her up, worried that she had strained her body.

Due to that, Xiong Zhi\'s courage deflated. Currently, she was in the middle of raising her previous determination whether to tell Linfeng her secret while being carried up the stairs.

They arrived at the rooftop of his childhood room in his private wing.

Linfeng\'s bag contained food, early winter coats, and a thermal blanket, to make sure that the autumn night breeze would not chill Xiong Zhi.

He set up a picnic on the rooftop by his attic.

He personally cooked the food. All of them were his and Xiong Zhi\'s favorite foods. The food was still piping hot inside the insulated thermal box.

The couple was peacefully eating.

However, Linfeng felt concerned.

Earlier, when she said to him that she had something to talk about, he agreed, but did not immediately let her tell it, in case it was out of impulse.

He wanted this small break to let her calm down and decide calmly to truly tell him, not because she was carried away by the earlier atmosphere. He guessed that it was probably connected to her painful experience, the reason why she cried so sorrowfully last night.

Something definitely happened to her, it should be really bad and traumatic.

It might also be related to her hatred to the father and daughter pair.

Or it could be about the suspicious things she was investigating. It was likely one of those.

Oh, there was also the strange reaction whenever she met Guan Gao Huan.

Linfeng both liked and did not like the fact that Xiong Zhi hated Guan Gao Huan for no reason.

Liked because she definitely guarded against that pervert and hated him.

Did not like because she was too affected by another man, even though in a negative light.

But that was before.

Now, Xiong Zhi belonged to him, her heart, her mind, and her body.

He now liked that Xiong Zhi hated that guy so at least she would never let herself be near him, because Linfeng got an intuition that Guan Gao Huan was no simple person.

Whatever Xiong Zhi wanted to tell Linfeng, it was definitely something very crucial and uncomfortable to her.

He waited for Xiong Zhi to speak.

But the latter did not mention about it.

So Linfeng did not ask her and continued to ease the atmosphere by telling her many anecdotes of his childhood, such as what he usually did when he used to hide in this exclusive hangout.

He told her how much he loved to look at the sky from this place, appreciating the glorious dawn, the golden dusk, and the starry night.

Sometimes, the full moon looked like it was lighting up the whole world.

Xiong Zhi\'s eyes shone like stars as she listened to each of his stories.

He glanced at her, silently thinking.

Would telling him the story be really alright for her?

She was usually courageous, but she seemed to avoid this topic always.

Yes, he was curious.

He was dying to know about it...but.

If Xiong Zhi was having a hard time talking about it, he would rather wait until she was ready.

This principle of his would not change.

Now, they were already done with their dinner.

The warm soup made them both feel warm and fuzzy as they wore early winter coats and shared a blanket to shield themselves from the cold night of autumn.

They were not cold at all, but warm.

They nestled their heads against each other as they stared at the brightly shining stars above.

Far away from the city, the stars glittered brilliantly in unhindered view. Was it around this time that the Milky Way showed itself?

The stars filled every corner of the sky.

It made their breaths go away for a moment.

Their clear eyes mirrored the stars as they stared up at the sky, as if a galaxy was contained inside.

It was as if they were two little kids, a tiny solemn-looking boy and a small blank-faced girl, holding hands while staring up naively at the stars with their pure eyes. They felt satisfied with this simple happiness.

"The view here is great. The sky is so clear. Tonight seems to be the first time I really saw such a stunning starscape. Your hangout is suitable for stargazing," Xiong Zhi whispered in awe.

Linfeng let go of her hand to hug her into his warm embrace.

"It is. When I was young, I tend to think a lot. I always wanted to become someone strong. I always come up here and declare my ambitions to the stars. Really na?ve."

Xiong Zhi chuckled. "How cute, but it\'s not bad at all. Especially, you have the ability."

Linfeng buried his face on her hair and inhaled her scent.

"That house over there. Is it the Jang family\'s house?"

Xiong Zhi suddenly pointed at the nearest house to the Zhou\'s territory.

She noticed it because it was the nearest place with enough lighting.

It was also big and its structure was similar to the Zhou family\'s mansion.

Xiong Zhi remembered that Linfeng had spent his childhood with Jang Shin and the Tang family a lot.

Linfeng glanced up and nodded.

"Yes, that\'s their old mansion. The Jang family has been friendly with the Zhou family for a long time. Our families even built our mansions near each other, and trained the butlers together frequently. That\'s when I met Jang Shin."

"And Tang Xinyang… and that other Tang," Xiong Zhi mumbled, her tone lengthening at the latter words.

Linfeng chuckled. "Don\'t tell me you\'re still jealous?"

"What still? I\'m not jealous at all. There is nothing to be jealous about. They can\'t hug you like this, nor will they ever be able to."

"There were times when Jang Shin suddenly threw himself at me…"

Xiong Zhi looked up with a smile. "What did you say?"

"And I kicked him straightaway," Linfeng turned his words without changing his face.

Xiong Zhi nodded in satisfaction. "It\'s good to stay away from butterflies and peach blossoms."

The image of Jang Shin with peach blossom flowers on his head and butterfly wings on his back made Linfeng almost choke.

"So Jang Shin is a butterfly?" He laughed.

Then he tipped Xiong Zhi\'s chin up and kissed her.

"No one can hug me, or kiss me like this, correct?"

Xiong Zhi narrowed her eyes.

She held Linfeng\'s cheeks with both hand solemnly. "I will make sure they\'ll regret just thinking of kissing you."

She kissed his lips back, biting on his lower lip and entangling with his hot tongue.

Linfeng was only hers, ah!
